The best drill to feel this? proper clearing as well as GUARANTEE GREAT BALL STRIKING is the feet together drill; see "feet together drill shawn clement" as well as "feet together and one leg update" Enjoy! Shawn

By: pureballer30. on 17 May 12, 04:52:10
Awesome video! I'm struggling with my ballstriking because I feel that I am losing space on the downswing with the right hip almost in the way of my arms, and? i notice on video my right heel comes off early, adding right knee flex. Would a good way to get the hips to clear better be to feel the right foot rolling towards the target in the downswing? That would force the hips to clear properly correct?

By: JohnnyLTSD. on 12 May 12, 13:49:38
Hi? Shawn. When you "brace" against your left side, it appears as the you allow the club face to open up from it's original squared position at your primary address. Is this the case? I think an eagle eye view would be cool to see your set up position.

What I would do is ...
By: clemshaw. on 03 Mar 12, 12:26:32
What I would do is go to my "Most important videos to watch after my DVD series" playlist from my home page on you tube; you will see some very important videos on the action to target which means, you are releasing the swing towards the area you want to send the ball and not send the release AT THE BALL; which is what you would? be doing now...NEVER let the ball become your target by allowing your focus to get ripped off your target.

Hi Shawn. Love? ...
By: 74soll. on 03 Mar 12, 12:17:52
Hi Shawn. Love? your vids! Very instructive. I have a constant problem keep my posterior protruded and chest forward through my downswing. As a result I tend to shank/slice my balls and/or hit the dirt first then the ball. Do you any exercises to fix this? Thanks in advance and more power to you!

Thanks Shawn. I've ...
By: dpooper. on 03 Mar 12, 05:22:07
Thanks Shawn. I've been working hard on? this swing and I am fairly sure this hip action was the cause of me not being able to stay on the inside of feet which was causing my head to move in front of the ball. I'm no expert but time will tell.

I know what you mean; golf instruction? is only 100 years old right now and compared to kung fu's 5000 years, we have quite the ways to go! KNOW THIS HOWEVER: YOU ARE WIRED TO PERFORM WITHOUT THINKING ALREADY! Here are some must see videos for you: "Ridiculously easy golf; shawn clement" part 1 and 2; "arms and body timing; shawn...", "stop crashing; shawn..."; "Throwing the club; shawn", "Farm hammer; shawn", "Hammer through; shawn", "Fencing for power; shawn"; these will help BIG!

PLEASE HELP!! Hey Shawn, I really love your videos. I have a quick question. Is it ok to feel like in the transition i feel as though my hips start to fire first with my upper body resisting at first and then at the bottom fire through my extending my right arm? I have seen some videos and read some articles and hear so many? contradicting points. I have heard that I should be firing with my hips and have heard that firing my hips will get me in trouble. PLEASE HELP!!

By: plattmagic1. on 10 Feb 12, 09:58:38
I appreciate the response. You're a teaching pro and I'm a hack who shoots in the upper 80s. That said,? in golf instruction I generally let the majority win. If 9 out of 10 teachers say do this, I follow. It does seem that "quiet lower body" seems to be a nearly universal piece of swing advice these days. And what can I say- this hacker finds himself hitting more consistently when he keeps his left heel planted on the backswing. That's all I know.

By: clemshaw. on 07 Feb 12, 21:50:06
Here it is! This is where golf instruction went wrong... because of fear; fear of what might happen if there were too many things that could go wrong...OUR ANATOMY AND WIRING IS OVER 2 MILLION YEARS OLD AND WE ARE AMAZING...BUT WE DON'T TRUST, especially when a guy with a video camera with strong opinions shows up. Think Phil or Dustin are better off? I reference them because they bought into "eliminating variables"...:)?

By: plattmagic1. on 04 Feb 12, 23:02:16
I love your videos. But you know that referencing what a few select pros do is not fair. Pros have two things going for them that normal people don't. 1. They have all day to hit balls over and over. 2. They have a ridiculous amount of natural talent. These two things allow them to get away with all sorts of superfluous movements. This isn't an argument for "X factor/torque." This is an argument for eliminating as many variables that? we can- IF we can.

i don't disagree with? your instruction but citing Bubba Watson may not be the best example of what to do with a swing.

By: clemshaw. on 03 Feb 12, 13:56:15
I am sorry to say that it is you that is being brainwashed and preyed on; look back at Bobby Jones and look at Bubba Watson; Remember a guy named Jack? Video analysis is so dangerous when you don't know what you are looking at; I learned my anatomy at age 17 and have kept up yet you won't find many? teaching pros with any anatomical reference manuals that would clearly show that RESISTING WITH THE LOWER BODY IN THE BACKSWING IS A SURE RECIPE FOR EVENTUAL MECHANICAL BREAKDOWN OF THE BODY

By: jeanmunn. on 20 Jan 12, 13:18:32
To elaborate on my previous post, in most of your videos showing a full backswing your hips are rotated almost as far back as they can go. I would argue with you that this is not a good move at all and certainly not one to encourage. For a really solid unload and great coil restrict the hips and make a full shoulder turn, that's the move all really good players make. That? being said there certainly is a great deal of merit to your instruction but it's so easy to get overloaded with instruction.

Shawn, appreciate ...
By: jeanmunn. on 20 Jan 12, 13:10:15
Shawn, appreciate the time you put in with your instruction, golf instruction has been jumped on via the internet by thousands of so called " teaching pros. " I am unable to recall any sport where so many amateurs are basically? preyed on by individuals selling instruction or worthless high priced gimmicks. And that's exactly what they are, they are not " training aids " they are gimmicks. The whole instruction issue is chock full of contradictions from one instructor to the next as you know.

By: CarolinasPGApro. on 06 Jan 12, 15:42:33
I wanted to see if you'd do a video sometime on a hips drill I came up with....what I do is have the student loop an alignment stick through the front of their belt....in the backswing i get them to move the right end of the stick behind them (clear the right side to make room for the arms), then on the downswing try? to get them to move the left end of the stick behind them. I find it helps give them the feeling for getting the body out of the way without the pelvis going forward to the ball.

Hey Shawn! Brad ...
By: CarolinasPGApro. on 06 Jan 12, 15:39:53
Hey Shawn! Brad Edwards here. I'm a PGA teaching pro based in Charlotte NC and am a HUGE fan of your work. I stumbled upon your vids some years ago, and it was nice to see a? kindred spirit in that we base teaching in anatomy and physics rather than outdated theory.

By: clemshaw. on 14 May 12, 03:19:19
Easy to hook the ball when you are releasing at the ball; you feel like you have too much right hand etc...Well, the right arms and hand are not connected to a separate brain in charge of sabotaging your swing!! :) LOL!! Keep the focus on the feel of an effortless release of the? hammer, fishing pole or sword or by feeling the throw of the whole club to the target; perfect this feel through my "Fencing for power" "fishing and golf" "hammer through" videos and lock that feel to a target!!

Can you hit heel ...
By: pureballer30. on 09 May 12, 07:29:02
Can you hit heel shots because of the dynamically open clubface? I lose my lag a lot, hitting heel shots or thin screamers and sometimes I stick the club right into the ground, doing these things unconciously even though i want to go through the ball. Sometimes I feel like I am maintaning lag but I still hit it heely even though I? am compressing it. Always used a weak grip too, and I also hit a lot of hooks. What do you think?

Ball game. Yup. This was the video that put it ALL together. The swing was feeling good, but the? outcome was staying left of target (I'm a lefty). Stronger grip = dead center. Thanks!

By: bbellur. on 31 Mar 12, 02:47:57
Shawn - Thank you very much for your online lessons. I have strengthened my grip and am hitting low crisp shots? with my irons and taking a shallow divot. Actually gained a club in distance. Same grip with my driver/3wood and 3 hybrid leads to pull hooks..If I weaken my grip considerably, the ball flies straight. What could be the cause?

By: clemshaw. on 23 Mar 12, 14:41:00
This happens? way too much in golf instruction which is so unfortunate; please see my videos on working the ball called "draw and fade; shawn clement" part 1, 2 and 3; as well as my "bread and butter shot; shawn clement" video; very easy to understand! Shawn

By: chron1k. on 04 Jan 12, 05:43:20
Shawn, you are awesome. I've seen lots of improvement so far with my irons when using these tips. However, I'm having a bit of trouble finding a comfortable grip with longer clubs like the driver and hybrids. I have a tendency to hit drop kicked hooks and duck hooks (*but not very often). I usually take a swing with my driver when my? grip feels most comfortable. However, today I looked at my grip after a mishit and my left thumb was aimed more at 11 o'clock than 1 o'clock. Help??

Wow! What a ...
By: mpb1472. on 19 Dec 11, 01:43:22
Wow! What a difference in my ability to hit it straight or with a slight draw I had the last two days after following the tips in this video. I have tried a strong grip alone with inconsistent results. Turning club face 30 degrees closed, hinging the "snuff boxes" a couple times then adding the torquing of the left hand so the club face is square worked like magic with my irons. Moving the ball back of center is gold too. Only thing is too much of all these things done? at once I would over

By: fondu321. on 01 Nov 11, 15:50:22
Shawn,, Great video! the best I have? seen on how the grip interacts with ball striking. I have a 3.5 to 4 knuckle grip and I find it hard to not pull and or draw to the ball. Making me hit less straight shots and thus now I aim to the right. I just can't control how far the ball goes left through pulls and draws. I would rather hit it straighter but I love the contact and ball striking feel of a stronger grip. I need to find a median somewhere. Any suggestions?

By: eaglecot. on 02 Aug 11, 04:09:50
I had considered my grip to be "normal". Not strong or weak. And when I saw this video and heard you speak about square face at adress or impact I was sort? of wondering how I manage to have a square face at adress and also square when hands move in front of the club head at impact.. It was fun to see that I actually had a strong grip. 3-4 knuckles as you said. But I feel no strain in my left arm and club face is square at adress and it feels normal.

When I was much ...
By: 79barkingspider. on 29 Jul 11, 06:16:36
When I was much younger, the equipment favored a weak grip and use of the hands at impact. I suspect the more forgiving clubs now may reward a much stronger grip. I'm curious about the wrist at impact. Weaker grips cause the left wrist to bow outward,? but the stronger grip brings the club to impact with a flat left wrist. Players like V.J. often bow their wrist so much, the left hand almost comes off the club. This strong grip would change that dramatically.

Great explanation! ...
By: biowax. on 21 Jul 11, 19:35:42
Great explanation! Have had some serious problems with a push-fade with the driver lately, but switched to a much stronger grip to make sure the clubhead is closed at impact. This has resulted in hitting? more fairways and more confidence in attacking tight fairways. Still got the occasional monster fade, but atleast i know the remedy to fix it

Can't thank you ...
By: h0ss66. on 20 Jul 11, 15:00:31
Can't thank you enough for this one Shawn! Strengthening my grip has help cure my slice and has really improved my ball striking. There's a lot of misconceptions, especially on the internet, but you have confirmed to me what I believed...a stronger grip does indeed help club lag and ball striking, therefore fixing the slices! Now I'm working on my PMD? w/ a strong (aka proper) grip, and can't wait to keep improving!

By: MiniBlueDragon. on 15 Jul 11, 19:08:14
@clemshaw - Shawn, your videos are mind-blowing stuff. I've always been a "technical" golfer, studing positions, moves, techniques etc and ignoring the "feel" aspect of the swing. Thanks to your videos I've started dropping handicap and enjoying golf more. I normally use a? 3-knuckle strong overlap grip with my left hand, however recently I've noticed on hot days I get a blister on my right ring finger where it touches my left index finger. Any idea what I'm doing wrong? :(

Maybe you should ...
By: f0cusen. on 26 Jun 11, 23:23:52
Maybe you should weaken your grip but try to swing more out to the right away from the targetline I think you are flipping your hands over through impact. So try to have more of a body release and not the "roll" release a roll release is when you just overcross your forearms. Try to swing more from in to out and swing out away from the targetline turning your body through the shot and not just releasing? with your hands.

Great videos Shawn! ...
By: xivietal666headx. on 20 Jun 11, 22:28:50
Great videos Shawn! Love the new ones. One question for ya. I have been trying to figure out why so many of the pros? play with the "neutral grip". Hank haney always preaches it and so do many others. What is the benefit of learning to swing the club like this? It certainly doesnt feel natural so why is there such a push from the great ones to "roll the forearms" to square the face? Whats the benefit?

Shawn....idea for a ...
By: tfdoke. on 10 May 11, 15:47:13
Shawn....idea for a quick video. I think you should show/explain that when you hinge on the snuff boxes the? butt of the club is actually pointed to your left hip and not directly at your body. I had a lot of trouble with this earlier in the year because I was pointing the club at the middle of my body and making sure it was square, but you actually want the club square at impact position which is pointed to left hip. This would be great!

Dear Shawn, what ...
By: Eldnino. on 23 Feb 11, 07:59:50
Dear Shawn, what should we take into consideration/ modify when applying this strong grip for a Driver swing, since we wouldn't be hitting down on the ball and with the ball forward of our stance? Would you recommend two different grips? (strong for irons, and weaker for drivers)?

By: 112frankybaby. on 15 Feb 11, 15:31:24
I had the strongest grip in the world, almost Furyk style. And I tell ya strong grip does keep the ball low and a BIT further, but not as consistant as a weak grip. Weak grip is more advanced and takes more wrist action and timing, but its better? once you get it down.

By: clemshaw. on 15 Feb 11, 03:25:40
This is for both you and Reed521; #1 you need? to feel the difference between a target bound action and ball bound action; you want the action that releases way out towards the direction you want to start the ball; not release into the ball; see "Ridiculously easy; Shawn Clement" part 1 and 2; If you release to the target in a rhythmic and effortless way and it is still hooking, then you may weaken the grip; Shawn

Shaw, I've practice your swing method (hammer, pendulum, kid's swing, etc), it's working great for LW to Hybride. Using the driver/ W3 it's working when I swing (very) slow. When I try to accelerate to generate more power it's ending up in ? more or less everything. I've watched your clips in regards to driver, downswing etc and tried to find a solution. Is there one clip with a drill how to perform a continues smooth powerful downswing with the driver which I haven't found on your Channel ?

Working very hard on this at the moment. The feeling is like? I'm "centering" my pivot and getting my weight 50/50 again. For this to work really requires some in depth posture self-analysis. With proper posture, this becomes much easier. Don't neglect your setup!

By: jkiene. on 09 Jun 11, 04:22:31
The reason? you are a great instructor is you use analogies to convey your message and the fact that you provide drills which don't complicate the golf swing. Thank you for your great instruction...capturing what one "feels" in the golf swing...

This video alone is head & shoulders above anything else I've seen anywhere. brown547's comment is poignant as I'm coming to terms with the squat & pull. Is it correct to say, planting of the left heel, squat & pull starts the FS before the club has? begun its journey down & through?

By: cockywatchman1976. on 19 Aug 10, 16:08:45
Shawn, I find this is the biggest hurdle I face now-transition. My hip bump/squat-transition move, always seems to cause my head to get infront of the ball and my shoulders to open. This results in some inconsistency-when I get it right its nice, when I get it wrong it can be pretty painful. And this make me want to hit from the top as I get fearful of the consequences-I know the only answer is practice, but any ideas n how? to perfect it better?

Shawn - regarding ...
By: golfwolf. on 23 Jul 10, 13:29:47
Shawn - regarding your swing analogy. Makes sense if you're swinging the proper distance, but what if you swing? to far back? You lose the tension and effect of gravity so you'd need to catch the swing and pull if forward. I guess this is like overswinging on the backswing. Do you have any videos (or it not can you look into posting one) on the proper knowing when to stop yoru backswing and how to avoid overswinging? Thx!

The "person on the swing" analogy is the best I? have ever heard and is spot on for perfecting your golf swing. You can actually superimpose the 2 to feel exactly where and how you focus your body shift and impart your energy in the swing. Great video!

Shawn -- this tip ...
By: jherwitz. on 19 Oct 09, 21:49:22
Shawn -- this tip probably changed my game the most, especially with the driver. My problem used to be bringing the club too far behind me (and on a flat plane), and the idea of moving the handle first keeps the club in front of my body. I know you mention it in the video, but is it really OK to swing with the hands all loose and? the arms quiet, similar to the hickory-club style? I look at my takeaway and the club handle is pointed at my right thigh before the clubhead has even moved.

Great info Mr. ...
By: brown547. on 16 Oct 09, 19:31:10
Great info Mr. Clement...I worked on this and it was and improvement as far as striking the ball, I understand the reason for the squat is to shallow out the swing plane. In doing the squat right, I felt my inner thigh outer thigh abductor muscles as I moved into my left side. In making this move I'll be more consistent. I realized in failing to? make a consistent squat I was hitting inconsistently.

By: clemshaw. on 18 Jul 09, 11:53:44
Because of what golf instruction has become, I get this question a lot; here is the answer: There is? one plane for each club; then there is the plane you use for that particular shot with that club (Ball below feet, above feet etc); so how are you going to find that particular plane? See "golf pro lesson swing plane" for the answer; you will also enjoy "golf pro lesson arms falling down plane"; Thanks for the question! Shawn

Shawn, thanks for the video I feel like after watching all of your videos and trying to apply the techniques, this lesson helps bring it all back to? a few simple swing thoughts. I have a tendency to have a unilateral backswing especially in my wedge game to control distance and am still very focused on the ball rather than my momentum going towards the target. I am very conscientious and aware that my best swings come when I toss the club back and feel that "free-fall" feeling on the way down.

By: clemshaw. on 14 Mar 10, 23:29:12
Actually the 12 to 13 degree launch is what you are looking? for except you want the RPM to be closer to 2500; this tells me that you are coming in a bit steep and coordinates with your previous comment of thin shots off the toe; if your tilt is slightly forward in the downswing, the club will be coming back to the inside too early and thus the toe hits; see "golf pro lesson tilted twirl" for both irons and driver and work on the 2 ball drill from "golf pro lesson through ball" Shawn

By: clemshaw. on 31 Aug 09, 15:52:51
Great comment! I am not a fan of the 1 plane-2 plane comparisons; to me there is only gravity tracking the arms on the plane that fits the shot; you can have a 7 iron with ball above feet that has a much flatter plane as a 7? iron with ball below; so perpetual motion with abandon to gravity and momentum finds it every time for you; now the flat left wrist part...see "golf pro lesson bridging flat wrist with Hinged wrists" for the whole story...All the best!

Foot work changed my game. Playing for three years now. I was the slice king of my home club. As soon as I figured out the right foot should be planted throughout the swing.

To answer this in ...
By: clemshaw. on 18 Feb 10, 03:05:44
To answer this in 500 characters or less is very? difficult; but the answer is about length of club and how it affects the center of gravity of the human body in DYNAMIC MOTION; when wedge is in play, the motion is much more up and down and much closer to the body and requires the left side to clear better to get out of the way of the swinging arms; more open is easier; with Driver for a shorter person with long arms (Hogan) there is more outward pull and the left leg braces better closed stance.

I understand that ...
By: Baliol. on 17 Feb 10, 18:20:03
I understand that it may be advantageous to have feet in line with the target line for the middle clubs, a more closed stance (rear foot back) for longer clubs, and a more open stance (rear? foot forward) for shorter clubs. I think that this was the practice of Hogan. Why would there be changes in stance for the different lengths of clubs. Do you advocate these changes for different clubs? Why or why not?

By: finncox23. on 15 Dec 09, 17:27:13
Thanks shawn! I also realized that, when casually doing drills like the "perpetual motion," I'm not always "throwing my posterior out" to counterbalance everything. Without the correct posture and throwing the posterior back, I "turn more into the knee," placing more pressure on it. When I get in the correct posture, I find that there is much less pressure on the knee. I guess it's good to be conscious of this even when? doing casual drills.

Best is to work on the 2 best drills in golf: "golf pro lesson feet together drill" and "golf pro lesson one leg swing no weightshift"; you take the sway out going back and increase your rotational momentum coming through; the key here is the counter weighting in the follow through; when doing the drills, focus on keeping the left arch in contact with the ground to the finish; your butt will have? to turn out of the way properly for this to happen; Thanks for the question! Shawn

By: finncox23. on 14 Dec 09, 05:16:22
In this video, you mention that the feet don't roll to the outside well. In my finish, I tend to end up with most of the? weight stacked over my left heel (right-handed golfer) with the foot rolled out pretty significantly. I noticed that you don't roll your foot out that much, and end up stacked more over the ankle joint. Lately my knee has felt a little tight, and something is definitely off. I think I need to alter this before I injure myself. Any tips on how to avoid rolling so much??

By: clemshaw. on 12 Sep 09, 02:17:56

Hi Shawn, I love all your video's here and thank you for making so much great info available for free. I am looking forward to being able to purchase you dvd's in the near future. I have a question about this particular one regarding? the right foot when the hips are clearing and through impact. On the backswing I find that my left heal needs to raise to comlete the hip turn and then on the down swing i feel that my right heal is raising as i clear my left hip and come into impact. is this ok?

By: clemshaw. on 02 Aug 09, 02:29:45
The right knee has to straighten out SLIGHTLY going back to allow? for a complete hip turn; see "golf pro lesson Head Bobbing" video for more on this; Thanks, Shawn

By: faust142000. on 24 Jun 09, 15:01:44
Hey Shawn I feel myself pushing off of the inside of my right foot to start the down swing I guess it helps me to get my hips to clear and to shift my weight to the left side.? Is this a bad habit to start doing? My shot isn't suffering from it. Thanks for all the video's

Used to play but was very lonely; I am a people person! :) Love the family life and teaching is my passion; playing too of course; see "golf pro lesson head bobbing" for the answer to this question and you are right by saying that you will not be able to finish the backswing by keeping the right knee flexed; but you should not? hyperextend it either! Thank you for the nice comment! Shawn

By: clemshaw. on 13 Jun 09, 00:31:13

I do it in conjunction with the right hip moving back to the target and I found that it really helps to get me back? into the braced/tilt completed backswing. I am hitting the ball so pure, and it is all thanks to your great efforts. Thanks so much.

Shawn, once again, I think you are exactly right. One of the reasons why I believe your instruction is so "right" is you, as well as I, believe in this...why fight the human body and mind...it's going to do what I needs to do. We need to realize that, accept it, and get out of it's way. That's what I love about your teaching. I'm new to your methods,? and have ordered the DVD set. Keep up the GREAT work!

By: tigerwoodcourt. on 24 Dec 09, 04:31:50
"So what!...where's the problem" - love it Shawn. Your mantra "plant, fall, plant fall" totally clicked for me when I played today. Do you notice that Sam Snead does this "plant fall, plant fall" and just barrels through the ball?? Like a freak'n freight train!! His first plant during his forward press is like a "toss." Just like Shawn says. I see Snead's swing in a totally different light, I can see where he generates power, not? from brute force, but from the "plant, toss, fall."

By: clemshaw. on 09 Dec 09, 03:39:16
Why swing in a way today that you will not be able to execute tomorrow?? You will have to start all over again in 20 years; this swing is? for life!! Just ask Tom Watson who keeps showing the young guys how to do it from Tee to Green! If you see my "golf pro lesson learn your golf machine" you will see that your body was not meant to swing the way you are doing it right now...I was once where you are now and wish I had this info at your age! :) Shawn

By: XlburrowsX. on 26 Nov 09, 21:26:01
Your swing is a? very old style swing almost like jack nicklaus. (where he plants his left foot into the ground on his downswing) most young golfers including myself, we have alot of flexibility. I rotate my upper body in my takeaway leaving my lower body as it was at address. (Having a coil effect.) The way you teach it like at 1:54 with a modern swing you do not need to extend your right leg. luke

hi shawn. i recently discovered your videos out here. i really like the way you describe key swing concepts. i don't think head "bobbing" is an issue if you keep your right foot planted thru impact (ala Kenny Perry). i'm 6'3". if my head raises in my backswing, i need to compensate by dropping my head in the downswing..an extra movement. i don't see cink, vijay, stenson, els, or? other tall players with upward head movement in their backswing. welcome your thoughts & comments. great stuff!

By: vjwmd. on 27 Aug 09, 01:03:47
Hi Shawn....this might? be your best video ever. The analogy of staying in the half-pipe and bouncing back and forth (in my practice so far) has given me a feeling of fluidity that I have NEVER felt before. All the other stuff about "butt backwards" falling back towards target, the Hogan power, the arms falling drill.....all of these which I have tried to repeat and MANUFACTURE now seem to just flow and occur. I cannot wait to try this on course. Note....this vid is not on the usual list.

Shawn, first, I cant thank you enough. When I am doing the little bounce, I find this to be a great timing mechinism, I could almost set a metronome to it if I wanted to. Also I notice that when I want to swing harder, I bounce a little harder. Are these the correct feelings? Seems to work but I want to make sure I'm on the? right track. Still have some work to do, only been at it for a week and fall into old habits, but all in all I am very, very happy to say the least. Dave.

Both my late father (he passed away two months ago) and I had few things in common but one was the biomechanical breakdown of the swing. We loved analyzing our swings via slow motion video and spent countless hours talking about it. Once we discovered your videos (and purchased cd's I might add) it all began making sense. He didn't live? long enough to ingrain your swing method but II'm carrying on the tradition and look forward to teaching my two children your philosophies. Beautiful stuff!!

By: clemshaw. on 21 Mar 11, 00:21:53
The relationship is this: The arm club unit tracks it's own arc and the body listens and gets out of the way; some teachers like Jim Hardy have come up with the One Plane-Two plane labelling system which just does not apply in what we teach; each shot has it's own plane needed to achieve results and it is not your job to find? it; your job is to let gravity find it whether it is a 7 iron with ball above or ball below the feet; I hope this helps! Shawn

The relationship is this: The arm club unit tracks it's own arc and the body listens and gets out of the way; some teachers like Jim Hardy have come up with the One Plane-Two plane labelling system which just does not apply in our world; if I look at his one plane version, I would? call it the collapsed version of the golf swing because the arm-club unit collides with the rib-cage and gets diverted around the body...his 2 plane is still a manipulated swing too...this one is free.

By: clemshaw. on 14 Dec 10, 05:10:42
@thefamiliepak Not quite; the arm-club unit should not fall INTO the body but IN FRONT of the body; if you tuck into the body, you run out of space and you will either have to come over the? top or release too early and spin out; Ernie has a bad habit of spinning out and this is why he needs a weaker grip; Please see my "golf pro lesson elbow close?" and "golf pro lesson arms falling down plane" videos; Shawn

I discovered this video and some of your others that have really put me on track. I? like when you use analogies like swinging a sledge hammer and using its weight. Seems like that "intent" along with the "action towards the target" makes all the technical things like swing plane, lag etc. just kinda happen. S Clement is the best teacher.

By: clemshaw. on 09 Nov 10, 12:20:24
Hey Larrybud; yes, of course the body rotation has some to do with squaring of? the club, but there is definitely a release of the right over left as in baseball (the different plane is throwing your eyes off) because of the loaded arm unit with hinged wrists releasing through; if you see my "golf pro lesson feel and let the hammer through" and you try it with the hammer, it will bring your mind around to what I am saying here; you need to "see" with the body too!

By: larrybud. on 05 Nov 10, 23:18:24
I'm sorry, but your right arm does not "cross over" your left arm (as you say at 2:14), and your above view camera shows that it does not. The right arm is in exactly the same relation to the left arm on your back swing as it is in the follow through, it's just that your body rotation has moved your arms from the right side? of your body to the left side of your body.

To think about any ...
By: clemshaw. on 29 Oct 10, 13:45:41
To think about any body parts during the swing would be complete sabotage; you can be aware of certain body parts and the way they move during practice swings; this is OK in the learning process but when the ball is there, it is you, the target, and the feel of that powerful and effortless delivery (feels like a whip or swat or twirl) to that target! Thank you for the? question and kind words! Shawn

Great video ...
By: mikeslu1. on 29 Oct 10, 08:24:28
Great video Shawn.One important aspect of this video which could have been mentioned is the left elbow always pointing down in both the back and thru swing. Jim Ballard mentioned this in one of his videos. This would prevent one from laying the club off in the backswing and eliminate the chicken wing on the thruswing. Shawn do you feel the left elbow position should be something which? we should be focused on anythoughts? Thank You & greatwork

By: clemshaw. on 26 Jul 09, 04:06:39
This is tough on full shots as you will have an obstacle with your head going back and will not complete the backswing which is so important; but what you can do is look at a blade of grass behind the ball and then focus on the feel of the swing to the target; see "golf pro lesson eye ball" and "golf pro lesson how to repeat your? practice swing" and also "golf pro lesson routine on course" to have more options; you will also love the section in my dvd that talks about blindfolded practice...

By: Threadonaspool. on 15 Dec 08, 22:19:39
I used this yesterday in a competition, ive been practicing it indoors for a week or so. My putting was pretty poor so I just thought what harm can it do? I tell you guys what... I used it for long putts on the last number of holes and they were up there with the best long? putts ive ever hit. I even holed one. I just hope I can use it under pressure. For me under pressure means the holes b4 I destroy any chances of having a good round :( Great tip Shawn. I will continue with this one!

By: Threadonaspool. on 09 Dec 08, 18:41:49
I can see the logic in this for the longer putts but I dont know if I can trust my stroke enough. Ill practice this in my living? room. I know a guy who uses this technique and he wins putting competitions all the time. Im so anxious about my putting that I was actually following the putter head as i was making the backswing. You can imagine the sort of results that was getting me. Ill try bringing this into my game and will let you know the result. Another 5 star video as always! Thanks Gerry.

Putting while looking at the hole is an awesome tip as long as you TRUST your stroke. It helps to have a smooth pendulum stroke already built that you can count on.

Wow, I, too, want to comment on the information provided at 6:00. ? I took a good look at my posture and I was standing very upright and that was a result of me trying to keep the sole flat. I changed my stance to lean over the ball more and let the hands hang. Sure enough, the sole was not flat. I swung anyways and I felt like I had much more "room" to swing. Can't want to take this new setup out to the course. Thanks.

I'm a natural left-hander but play golf right, and I've always seemed to struggle with my optics and especially my head tilting towards the target and moving forward through impact.

By: watertonrivers. on 27 Feb 12, 05:46:29
I can't teach like shawn, however, you call it pulling from the top, but I call it changing grip pressure in the backswing(casting). If you are right handed don't grip too hard with the right hand. Too much tension in the the hands and forearms will wreck your swing!! I hold on just a tad firmer with my left but I? like to feel very, very light pressure in the right hand!!

Nobody was saying what you say,? so I read books by NIcklaus, Hogan, Snead, Nelson, Moe & more. I have gone all around & this braced tilt has become extremely helpful now in my swing. I feel so faithless & feel I should appologize to you! & give thanks. I will be your greatest student & give you credit when asked. Of course after god & my mom of course, then your teaching respectfully

By: n00bslayer74. on 13 Jan 12, 02:45:27
To tilt, all you do is? move your head a little to the right(for a righty)and in response, your hips will move to the left?Also it feels like my hips and shoulders are not straight at the target, are they?Also, in the backswing, you have to toss the hands back(to create width?)with the turn of your hips(right?)and at the top you will still fell braced against the left side?From there,you let everything fall around the pressure point and to get more power, you push the club like a swing?Plz answer

If there was? a contest for the average 30 handicap from mats vs grass, there would be a significant improvement with mats; HOWEVER, if you hit the ground before the ball, you will feel it with both and that is what is important.

This clears it up for me big time. Went to the range and hitting balls very nicely.

This video is the key to the golf swing. Now I see where you tilt from. You tilt your lower spine into the left side. I was confused. I thought it was the head tilting away from the axis of motion. Now I get it. Now I'm making solid contact and hitting the ball first. Shawn you are? a genius.

I'm wondering if I don't have the brace, or weight on my left side, as my divots (if I take one) are never in front of the ball. I'm sure I'm losing a some forward tilt through impact as well. Any thoughts sir??

By: clemshaw. on 25 Nov 10, 19:10:07
Yes; a great weight distribution in DYNAMIC ADDRESS is 60-40 in favor of the left or forward side; feeling that we are already in motion in our follow through and in the process of allowing our arm-club? units to swing into the backswing while letting our bodies listen to this and gliding out of the way; Shawn

By: parttroll1. on 25 Nov 10, 16:44:10
Hi Shawn I'm just revisiting this concept as I'm prob not setting up correctly for it. It? looks to me that your left leg is pre-set to the impact position. I was wondering therefore is there a perceptible increase in weight going through the left foot at address say 60:40 rather than 50:50 as conventional texts will say?

By: burkeyatm. on 04 Apr 10, 13:45:10

By: tbirdsteve1. on 04 Nov 09, 08:52:05
So much? of this video rang a bell with me especially when driving!! Every time I would tee off I would hit the ball well but it would slice off to the right and I would stagger backwards unable to finish the swing fully. Now I can see that I am swaying onto the right leg and leaving my weight there thru the swing just as you demonstrated. This just makes so much sense now! Awesome Sean, thanks.

By: davidskerr. on 03 Nov 09, 13:01:10
Shawn, With the swing sequence in other videos you discuss a 'squat'? or movement to the left just before the downswing. Would that not have an impact on the arc line of the club in relation to the position of the ball at address? I am finding that I am not able to get a consistent arc, hitting the ground before the ball or taking very large divots. Thanks, David.

Great question! ...
By: clemshaw. on 31 Oct 09, 03:10:47
Great question! Holding the lag is gravity's job, more precisely centrifugal force; the key here is to FOCUS ON SENDING THE WHIP OF THE SWING TO THE TARGET!! See "golf pro lesson how to repeat your practice swing" and "Golf Pro lesson put some? snap in your swing" Make sure that your grip is bullet proof!!! I have several videos on the grip for a reason! :) Shawn

By: ASILASIL1. on 29 Sep 09, 23:37:39
Sean i watched your Contact and Spin video and you said that as you planted on your left in the downswing your centre moved to the left and this is what creates ball turf,? or hands leading the downswing? Also a question of lag, as you let the arms fall do you use muscle power to hold the lag till the hands reach the ball or is it natural. Great techer!!! tx, PS i have your dvd WHICH IS GR8

So, if I play the ball in the middle of my stance, and swing the club on the arc, with? no manipulation of club face at address (face is square to arc) and everything else being correct (tilt, stance,etc) I will basically hit the ball straight. Play the ball back slightly => produces slight draw. Play the ball way back => produces push / slice Play the ball slightly forward => produces slight fade Play the ball very forward => produces major fade or a hook. Am I on the right track?

By: clemshaw. on 14 Jul 09, 02:40:43
Great insight! The thing is that the club head is way wider with the center of gravity farther back in the head so this changes things quite a bit; you want the center of the club in the center of the stance and the ball forward of this for a ball on the ground; then as the ball is teed up, the higher it gets the farther forward you play it and then? you will start needing to aim more right as you will start to pull it; Great comment! Shawn

By: otigosce. on 10 Jul 09, 12:46:52
Shawn, I'm hitting well all of the clubs that are designed to hit the ball off the ground (3w - SW). But I'm having a hard time figuring out the driver and how it relates to the arc/swing concept. Here is what doesn't make sense. With driver you catch the ball on the way up and it is set up off the left heel. With the ball forward and the catching it on upswing, isn't that point on the arc where the club starts coming back towards your body? So you will either wipe? across the ball or pull it?

By: clemshaw. on 21 Jun 09, 11:22:25
There are 3 things for toe shots; one is too far from the ball (Golf Pro Lesson Distance to? ball part 1 and 2) next is you are standing up and loosing spine angle in the backswing which pulls the arms closer to you (Golf pro lesson don't keep your head down part 1 and 2) and last, which should not be the case because it would send the ball left is your head is moving forward or you are swaying in the backswing which would also pull you farther from the ball; see also "Hogan power drill"...

If you are looking to get to the next level and are on the course or range 5 days a week, blades are what you need to get the feedback that is much more precise; you will hone your game much more. Tiger, Ernie, Phil, all use blades and if cavity backs were that great they would be using them. 30 years ago, all we had were blades and thank goodness for? that as this cut the confusion out! :) Shawn

But I have recently moved from my old club to a new one that carry Titleist...and I love Titleist! The first day I hit a D3 Driver I got one a week later! So I really want to get some MB's but my instructor, who I really like, says I should get Ap2's or CB's. I shoot around? 82 and I know I still have some work to do!

The most important ...
By: clemshaw. on 20 Jan 11, 14:10:31
The most important thing to do is this: Whip to target and see how the ball flies; if you were looking for a fade and you get a straight shot, then the face of the club is a bit too closed; you must feel? the difference between an action to target and an action to ball is though!! See the last 50 videos from my you tube home page; then you should be caught up; pat attention to the ridiculously easy video titles...Shawn

By: clemshaw. on 20 Jan 11, 14:02:51

Myself, I'm getting better, but still developing my swing. Even though my swing is still developing, but getting closer, should I still wait, or should I get fitted now?

By: Coupe300. on 17 Jan 10, 00:56:29
Hi Shawn, love your videos. I am looking at buying a new set of irons, I am 6'4 and when i go into shops their immediate advice is to get shafts 1 inch longer than standard. When i tried all the different brands i found that i was striking the X22's the best. Problem is, this was with the standard length shaft. So, i am unsure as to whether i should order a set 1 inch over (without being able to try them out) or would the? standard length be ok (given my height). Thanks

Sorry for the late ...
By: clemshaw. on 02 Nov 09, 01:57:35
Sorry for the late answer; shaft selection seems fine and they are a good set of clubs; the key though would have been to try others to compare; but there are other factors like were you swinging through the ball and was the distance between you and the ball correct when you tried? them; I am sure that after a couple months that things are starting to gel?

I do know really, I think I just don't play often enough, but it is unlike any other game in that regards - such small margins. Will never give up though.

By: clemshaw. on 04 Aug 10, 01:52:26
You mean feet parallel right? The thing that is missing in your description is after you place the ball back in the stance with the feet parallel, you need to brace against the left side with the sternum and center of pelvis (pant zipper) behind the ball; this will make it feel that the momentum wants to go right all by itself and you want to allow it to completely without fighting it; then see what results you get! :) Shawn?

Matching perception to reality. That? is the truth for sure. As I was commenting in the taut arms video...this has helped me greatly. Feeling my arms to be strong coming thru allows me to create that great arc and a feel of where the ball is going. Kinda hard to put into words but when you feel the ball coming off the face and sailing just the way you envisioned, its the greatest feeling. That is what I am feeling now with my swing and I'm loving it. Kudos to you Shawn.

By: KDOGG445. on 26 Aug 09, 02:31:42
shawn...great stuff! I have been working on keeping my head behind the ball for the past couple of weeks and it has produced some better ball striking. These tilted spiral videos really reinforce the feel I'm looking for. I love your "lid on? the pressure cooker" analogy from spiral #2. I have a tendency to stand up coming in to the ball and either thin it out or block it. I think that swing thought will make a huge difference for me. Love your teaching style man! It is really tangible. Thanks!

So the little press forward to get that wrecking ball going 'corrects' for this feeling of? being closed that I have at address. Getting away from this 'manipulation' feeling is my main aim because it's so inconsistent, and I think this perpetual motion drill will be the key. As someone commented on that video, I also found when swinging non-stop, it tracked on plane, but I couldn't re-create it from a static start. At the very least, I'm hitting it flush again! Out to the yard to practice!

Hey Jdotson! Correct! Focus on the feel of the snap past impact or the release of the stone towards the pond like described by "Chabelyk" and you will get what you are looking for; when trying to hold the lag, this thinking is still pre-ball with no target and this is impossible to do properly and consistently...too many loose ends and questions like how long before you let the lag go and? hit the ball? Here gravity does all the work and all you are looking for is one feel...past the ball!

Thanks? Putney! ...

By: chabelyk. on 01 Sep 08, 06:01:39
Like jdotson, I have also been working with my instructor to hold the lag and I haven't had much luck. Tonight I experimented with a swing where I imagined I was skipping a stone. We've all read this but I never really understood what it meant. I tried it and I experienced a tremendous swatting action at impact similar to Shawn's video. I saw & heard my instructor's swing, and his ball sounded like it was? exploding during impact. This had to have come from a snap type release.

Hey Shawn. Great ...
By: jdotson. on 30 Aug 08, 15:18:52
Hey Shawn. Great mental thoughts here to get that snap? thru ball effect. For a long time I was trying to hold the lag and drop the club in. I think that is where a lot of people get the wrong idea. This is something that should just happen naturally in the transition correct? Trying to hold the lag (Using that thought) was horrible for me. But this clip does help. Thanks!

By: putney1968. on 28 Aug 08, 02:33:32
Shawn, once again a great way to conceptualize the right feel for making a swing. I want to say though, that watching your vids about letting the hips turn as opposed to trying to build resistance has improved my game. As long as I turn the hips fully I can make a complete shoulder turn, THEN start the weight shift and add real energy to the swing. I can hit my driver right to left and add 25 yards when I get my mojo working. Keep up? the good work. I recommend your videos to everyone I see.

Hi Hunter! Thanks ...
By: clemshaw. on 26 Aug 08, 02:32:16
Hi Hunter! Thanks for your comment! Have a look at my "momentum Toss" part 1 and 2 vids; it is like pushing a kid on a swing; you need the? momentum to flow down on it's own first; then when you assist that momentum through the ball with the whole body, you will get the big speed way past the ball and not at it; have a look also at the "through the ball" video...all are on the you tube shawn page of my website; Shawn

By: HunterDT. on 25 Aug 08, 03:28:36
Hi Shawn. This video is really helping me out. One thing I would like to ask though... I seem to be able to make some great contact when I swing, oh, 1/4 to 1/2 way back. When? I decide to "give it some juice" and get more towards my full swing distances, I begin to make contact closer and close to el hosel. (Sometimes resulting in you know what.) I assume I am trying to add power with my arms thus rushing them through impact? Where should I get this extra power from if not the arms? Thanks!!

@clemshaw I have joined the forum and have been lurking but I will post my thoughts soon enough. The lesson that really clicked the light on for me was the? Taut Swing video. The concept if the baseball swing motion did it. I make it a point now to feel my hips go first in the downswing. This has created the lag I was missing and made my whole swing oily as you call it. I'm still working on it but you are the only one who actually helped me to put it together. I'm a believer.

By: 451mnu. on 10 Aug 10, 08:17:39
Shawn, I know very little about Moe Norman other than his ability to strike it better than anyone else. I assume he must have used a deep-face driver, hence his set-up several inches behind the ball catching it on the upswing and ending up with a very high finish. I don't see any other contemporary tour player doing that. Your through swing has that Norman influence (that upper-cut to the target) with a supple finish.?

Hi Shawn, Thanks ...
By: 451mnu. on 10 Aug 10, 08:05:05
Hi Shawn, Thanks for another excellent video. The driver several inches behind the ball like Moe Norman, to be honest initially I was puzzled since I don't recall watching tour players set up like Moe - most set up very close? to the ball. You demonstrate on this video, the lower you tee it up the closer you position the ball to the driver-head. As you indicate tour players do tee it up much lower than average players.

By: Bossanovawitcha. on 16 Feb 10, 04:33:41
Wow, whats up with all the 'haters'? There are many swing styles, but they're just that - style. Clement produces quite a bit of clubhead speed (hear the 'whoosh' after the ball?) with minimal effort, the latter meaning his swing is -quite- repeatable. Apologies to Mr Hogan, but his '5 lessons' swing too aggressive for most amateurs and those of us that entered the game later in life. Shawn's swing reminds? me of Iron Byron Nelson's, who also had the 'bob' momentum move - pretty good company?

By: clemshaw. on 15 Dec 09, 14:50:56
This just means that you are not hitting the ball in the center of the club face; to achieve this, you need to focus on how the sole of the club is going to deflect across the ground on? the way to the target; see "golf pro lesson distance to ball part 2" as well as "golf pro lesson stop topping and get better divots"; thank you for your question!

At? address, I have my hands forward, similar to impact position. Is this wrong? Thanks... Michael

By: HynoDesigns. on 20 Aug 09, 00:28:09
Oh my goodness just watched another one of these. Your right leg is a super reverse? pivot. You are way out of sink on the backswing. You do some weird move to complete the backswing, it is all hands. You are not synchronized at all. Your 1st move down is across the line and out of plane. Than your action though the ball, is an up move in which your hands are in control which makes any kind of body turn through the ball not possible. Under pressure, I can't see this swing working.

Giday Shawn, Today I took my video camera to the driving range and filmed myself. I have to say I 'hit like a girl'. My set-up is good and that's about all, after that it's bent arms all the way with more shoulder turn than hips and body. The momentum of the club seems to be the same thoughout the swing which is more like a swishing motion than a zing and snap? motion. How can I achieve better momentum through the ball. Is it timing or do I need to do some strength exercises. Rosie

By: Gyro911. on 11 Jul 11, 15:50:45
Keep your grip firm on the back and down swing to get? a straight left arm. A bent left lead arm is the kiss of death to the casuall golfer unless you like shanking the ball every once in a while. A bent arm requires a precise tempo that only very experienced golfers are able to get away with.

By: cjcollas. on 20 Dec 09, 10:18:06
The truth is that you can swing with a left arm straight ( see ernie els, tiger, rory, sergio,? etc) or you can swing with the left arm bent ( see lee westwood or goosen). Having the left arm bent imo creates problems in the swing so i like to have it straight. But kip is right that it should not be so straight that it is creating a stiff arm full of tension.

By: JuliusJueLi. on 28 Jan 12, 06:20:22
It doesn't matter that the club face is a little bit? open. Try hit the ball from inside-out so that the club face is closed in relation to the real line. Now, you get a decent draw. another solution can be the 9 o'clock to 3 o'clock drill. With swing forward & backward, keep the wrists relax and you will have the feeling of wrist rotation.

By: CideousNx. on 06 Aug 11, 18:12:23
I have tried to hit with lag for years but I ALWAYS push it or slice it right. I can NEVER strike the ball with good lag without leaving the club face open. No idea how to fix that. Swinging with lag is easy, striking the ball with the clubface square? WHILE lag swinging is very hard.

I love you.?

re: 2 ball drill -- great drill for practice. But what about on the course? How do I get the CNS to light up and go through the ball and through an imaginary second ball? I tried imagining another ball, that doesn't work. I tried to pick out a blade of grass, that doesn't work either. Only in practice with the? second ball do I feel the compression through the ball. Thanks.

By: EverydayGolfCoach. on 28 Mar 11, 21:16:08
Lots of good stuff there Shawn, love the analogies. Lag is so important and mostly illusive in the majority of golfers. Isn't it centrifugal force that unhinges the wrists? in the down the swing?

By: mjs0039. on 09 Feb 11, 03:20:52
Hi Shawn I think the tip at 8:10 also helps to keep the body very centered with the correct spine tilt. It is helping me a lot and? I have started to begin my backswing in that very manner. It is really paying off. Thanks.

By: marine19305. on 05 Jan 11, 10:43:28
hi shawn, i've only just discovered your tuition videos and they are remarkable!!! i've watched more golf tuition? videos than i care to mention and yours are head and shoulders above the rest. this sounds very strange shawn but i've had several lessons from a reputable x-pro and seemed to do well whilst being taught but since then i've been for 3 rounds this week and i played horrifically. my main problem is that i seem to top the ball off the fairway (rather play from rough) please, please help

You would be ...
By: clemshaw. on 10 Sep 10, 10:45:33
You would be correct! If you do use the impact bag, do it to practice the heavy momentum, meaning that you would be using the weight of the? arm-club unit to hit the shot; see "golf pro lesson tilted spiral part 2" for this one; Shawn

Hi Shawn, This ...
By: fguiddi. on 05 Jul 10, 20:32:03
Hi Shawn, This video has changed my game! I used to be a caster of the club, hitting the ball from the outside-in, tilting my head forward. Oh, and with zero lag. Your tip of using a back swing like golfers of the 1900 did,? (min 8:10) unlocked the power in my swing. Once I started doing that, LAG...magically appeared!! This back swing allowed me to create club head speed were i needed it and let gravity take care of the rest... Guys it WORKS!! You're an amazing teacher. Thank you. Francesco

Been revisiting some of our videos lately. I must say that this one right here is in my top 5 of all. I love the way you explain the focus and width in the swing. This is what has helped me know exactly how the golf swing feels through the ball. Still hitting the ball very well these days and developing a repeatable golf swing that? will come naturally on the course. Thanks again Mr. Shawn Clement....you're the man!!

@fabianwseko this is a verbal cue to allow the arms and club to? rest naturally at address without manipulation, and as you start the swing, to allow gravity and good rhythm to swing the club rather than placing it in positions. Matt Blois

By: clemshaw. on 09 Jan 12, 19:45:52
Yes, this pertains to the action to target; what makes the hands lead is the focus of the delivery of the energy or action in the direction you want to start the ball; see "Hammer Through;? shawn clement", "throwing the club; shawn clement", Fishing and golf; shawn clement" and "how arms and club release; shawn clement"; Shawn

Hey James! Have a look at my "Overswing and Fast backswing; shawn clement" video as well as my "Hammer through", "Feel your swing plane" and? "Farm Hammer" videos which talk about how to use the weight of the Arm-Club or arm-hammer units to perform the task; it will clear a few things up for you; Shawn

By: BradMilligan. on 30 Dec 11, 15:36:05
Hi Shawn. Huge fan of all your videos. Can you please address the right side in the swing. There is a lot of talk about right side golf these days and it would appear you're teaching a body motion with? passive hands. Hogan always said he wished he had 3 right hands. Relating it back to your hammer analogies, if I were swinging a large hammer with two hands and I'm right handed, wouldn't I tend to use that right hand to push the hammer into impact? Wouldn't this be a natural move? Thanks

Shawn, How much of your teachings are based from ideas employed by Moe Norman? I have watched a ton of Moe Norman video and think his ideaology was? spot on. Second, do you employ the idea of setting up your irons 4-6 inches behind the ball as Moe used to do? Thanks for all the great videos!!

By: Tourswing. on 14 Dec 11, 15:03:37
Maybe I can answer this for Shawn. At address the rake head is 90 degrees to the back of the left hand. At the? top of the swing, it's the same relationship. Imagine you had a long nail through the palm of the left hand, same relationship at the top. In a similar way the leading edge of the club is in line with the back of the left hand (more or less dependent on how strong the grip is). It's a bit of a brain burner, but just think about it and it'll make sense!

Shawn... excellent ...
By: marklarm. on 14 Dec 11, 06:15:07
Shawn... excellent creative instruction, as usual. I couldn't help but notice when you were swinging that rake, on the profile view, that the fingers of the rake were pointing directly downward. Yet they started pointing upward before your swung. Is that right? Is? there not something visually/technically wrong with that image? If that were your driver head, where would the face be pointing at the top of your swing? Very curious to know if this is normal or just 'your' personal swing. ty Mark

By: clemshaw. on 13 Dec 11, 22:08:02
You are allowing the arms to fall in front of you without crashing into the body and an object in motion stays in motion and you will let the arm club unit release itself towards the target; you definitely need to get this question on? my forum and have some of the guys answer in more detail with added videos; you definitely want to watch 3 key ones to start called "Arms and Body Timing; shawn clement", "Stop crashing; shawn clement" and "get bubba wide; Shawn clement"

By: RollYourRock. on 13 Dec 11, 20:38:53
Thanks again Shawn... Shawn, should we strive for width on the downswing as well? Where should the hands initially be directed at? the start of the downswing?
